According to Deep潮 TechFlow, on July 14, foreign media reported that after DeepSeek completed its latest funding round, founder Liang Wenfeng's personal wealth more than doubled, making him the wealthiest founder of global AI large model companies. Based on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, Liang Wenfeng's current net worth stands at $36 billion (previously approximately $16.7 billion), surpassing Anthropic co-founder Dario Amodei and OpenAI co-founder Greg Brockman.
This comparison only includes companies whose main business and majority of revenue come directly from AI large models, excluding diversified tech giants like Alibaba and Tencent, as well as companies related to the AI industry chain such as data centers and semiconductors. The majority of Liang Wenfeng's wealth comes from his controlling stake in DeepSeek.
In June this year, DeepSeek reportedly completed a 50 billion yuan funding round, valuing the company at over 330 billion yuan, with Liang Wenfeng personally investing 20 billion yuan. According to Bloomberg Billionaires Index calculations, his shareholding was diluted to approximately 78%. (Jin10)
